Keith and Rachel Good, but Fox is Bad…

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

Jay Leno makes fun of the situation. Because hey, other than the obvious trampling of the spirit if not the letter of the First Amendment…what else is there to suggest it can be taken seriously?

Hat tip to Sister Toldjah, who is chagrined along with everyone else with a brain that Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann apparently made the cut. Would someone somewhere like to justify that…somehow. Can’t wait to see it.

whoisthetrizzle spoke for me yesterday at Nealz Nuze…not completely so, but I found much wisdom in these words. And frankly, if anybody else doesn’t, I don’t trust ‘em too much.

This is the last I will say about Fox News. I cannot for the life of me figure out what all the fuss is about. So Fox news has a conservative bias. Big deal. Let’s just go so far as to say that they in fact do not report any news but opinion only (I’m not actually suggesting this is true). What’s the problem? I’m amazed at how up in arms both sides are but the left in particular. To quote South Park, “I thought this was America!” I thought people were allowed to speak their minds with few exceptions. Anyone who promotes freedom and equality, especially the president, should always welcome opposing views. If the president of the United States (Obama or otherwise) truly cared about doing what is best for the people of this country then he would encourage everyone to study both a consenting view and an opposing view. Only by getting both sides of the story can one make a truly informed decision. Notice I said anyone who promotes freedom and equality. This does not seem to be the case with the current administration.

Well, at the risk of losing your trust Morgan…

The fact that ‘whoisthetrizzle’ just goes along with the premise that Fox is NOT news instead of dismissing the ridiculous argument outright is troublesome to begin with. But then this…

“I’m amazed at how up in arms both sides are but the left in particular.”

…really got me going.

Huh!?! He/she obviously has something to say about it but nobody else should get “up in arms” about it!?! And “it” is an administration attacking a news organization, the same assholes who went after a plumber who dared to question the One, who attacks a radio host (Rush) practically daily, who are going after bloggers who get paid…Yea, nothing to be concerned about I guess, we just talking about freedom of speech, everything will be fine, pipe down, don’t get so upset, it will all just blow over, it ALWAYS does, just look at history…

I’m with all those folks who speculate about what the firestorm would have looked like had Dubya called out that asshat Olbermann and HIS network a year or so ago. I’m told there’s a pic of Dubya making the rounds with a caption that reads “Miss Me Yet?” Yes. Yes, I DO. Every frickin’ day.
